All kwargs to XMLWriter.element() are interpreted as XML attributes --
except the Falsy ones. So passing indent=False doesn't have any
effect, but it's wrong to pass indent to element() anyways (e.g.
passing indent=True would crash it instead of doing any indenting).

It might make sense to extend the element API that work this way?

Not really, indenting is controlled by the parents...
